5.00Even though it was raining the staff did an excellent job making sure we were warm, dry and comfortable. There was a cover over the carriage, and warm blankets available. The horses were well cared for and enjoyed to be petted. The Christmas lights were lovely as we wandered around Saanichton. Was not the first time we have done this and won't be the last. Nice to be able to enjoy and event without having to go downtown.
To create an amazing Christmas experience
